As early as they were described in writing by Occidental and Coscivian geographers, the islands that would one day be included in the Krasoa Colony were inhabited by Austronesian peoples related to the people of Loa Republic and the descendants of the fallen [[Glaistic civilisation]], who engaged in a degree of cultural exchange and marital intermixture with one another. | |||
The Krasoa Islands were frequented by merchants from Sarpedon and Kiravia to trade for their exotic botanical goods. They subsequently became contested between Pelaxia, Kiravia, Caphiria, etc<sup>?</sup> during the [[Kindred Wars]] | The Krasoa Islands were frequented by merchants from Sarpedon and Kiravia to trade for their exotic botanical goods. They subsequently became contested between Pelaxia, Kiravia, Caphiria, etc.<sup>?</sup> during the [[Kindred Wars]], during which Kiravian and Kiravian-backed forces consolidated control over Big Krasoa Island, Island №3, and Island №5. The partition of Saint Martin island between the Kiravian and Burgundine thalassocracies would occur later, in [YEAR], following [EVENT]. | ||
Initially, | Initially, the islands formed a unitary province, the Captaincy-General of the Mild Isles of the South, subject to the oversight of the Superintendant of Hāverma in [[Pribraltar]] until 1812 AD<sup>[why?]</sup>. The territory of the Captaincy-General was then parcelled out into [[Canton (Kiravia)|subprovinces]] initially governed by the [[Bay Trading Company]] and the [[Kerēgulan Merchants of the Tropics]] under patents from the Kiravian government. Over time, the arrival of Kiravian settlers and assertion of greater control by the Colonial College led to the gradual reorganisation of the colony and replacement of company rule. The Piradia Plantations in southeastern Big Krasoa Island, where there was the greatest density of Kiravian homesteaders and fewest commodities of interest to the mercantile groups, were the first part of the colony to transition from corporate to civil administration, followed by Island №5. The Piradia Plantations would later be extended and chartered as a separate Colony of South Krasoa. Eastion, Island №5, and the Krasoa Colony proper would similarly receive their own charters in the subsequent decades, while the more northerly areas in what is now the Palmetto Coast, Aventurine Bay, Island №3, and Nív-Martain would remain under the Captaincy General. | ||
During Kirosocialist rule in Great Kirav, the Krasoas remained in the hands of the [[Kiravian Remnant|Federalist rump state]] based on [[Æonara]]. | During Kirosocialist rule in Great Kirav, the Krasoas remained in the hands of the [[Kiravian Remnant|Federalist rump state]] based on [[Æonara]]. The Kiravian Remnant completed the process of administrative subdivision of the Krasoas, distinguishing the Palmetto Coast and Nív-Martain as separate provinces (abolishing the Captaincy-General) and overseeing the elevation of Krasoa proper, South Krasoa, Aventurine Bay, Eastion, and Island №5 as overseas states. | ||
